Shortly after 2 a.m., Orange County deputies in the area investigating a series of car burglaries instead found 19-year-old Gary Jahmel Shaquan Elliott, who was bleeding from a wound on his right arm.

According to a sheriff's report released Wednesday, a deputy first spotted Elliott dressed in dark clothing and pedaling a heavily loaded three-wheel bicycle on South Rio Grande Avenue. That's when the teen made an abrupt turn behind a duplex residence and disappeared.

The bicycle was found abandoned with a backpack and two large black bags filled with guns.

"Inside...I saw multiple handguns with Al's Army-Navy price tags and serial numbers," Deputy Matthew Vinson wrote. "There was also spray can bottles and (a) crowbar in one of the bags. I also could see blood on most of the handguns as well as the handlebars of the bicycle."

Florida is known for its bizarre inhabitants. From the infamous "zombie" attack to the crack-smoking woman who burned down The Senator, here are some of the strangest stories.

Elliott was caught as he tried to walk away from the area, records show.

The deputies contacted the Orlando Police Department and held Elliott near the corner of 39th Street and South Rio Grande Avenue until officer arrived.

A check of the gun shop did not find immediate signs of the break-in. But an officer looked through the front door and saw the hole in the ceiling that a sheriff's helicopter crew also spotted.

After the door was unlocked, three glass display cases were found shattered. And black paint was sprayed on the floor in an attempt to cover blood, records show.

Elliott was charged with armed burglary of a structure with a firearm, third-degree grand theft of a firearm, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and criminal mischief.

He remains held without bail on an additional charge of violating probation on his felony conviction for robbery with a dangerous weapon. The teen has been arrested five times before on various charges.

All but four pistols of about 75 handguns and long guns stolen in the burglary were recovered, according to the police report.

This is not the first time burglars have hit Al's Army Navy in Orlando.

Thieves driving a stolen SUV on May 21, 2006, crashed through the store's front entrance. After that, Crasnow installed crash barriers to prevent a repeat incident.

The crash-and-grab gun burglary was one of seven that spring at gun shops across Central Florida.

About 400 guns were stolen during the rash of burglaries, records show.

In 2013, burglars broke through the back wall of Crasnow's store in Altamonte Springs and got away with 58 guns, records show.

About 15,000 firearms are stolen every year from gun shops nationwide, according to the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
